Hi: I want to change the stem on my wife's '79 Motobecane Grand Jubile. She's had the bike for over 30 years and is still riding it, but needs the bars higher now. I can't figure out who to get the molded handlebar covering off, especially since it seems to be one piece with the brake lever hoods. How did you do it?
